Introduction

Food and the Culinary Industry with Trainee Chefs, who in turn inspire him.
The ChefMLK School of Cooking Main Campus is based in Glen Marais, Kempton Park and is ideally
situated in the centre of Ekurhuleni and accessible by both public and private transport.
What does ChefMLK School of Cooking offer in 2020?
Applicants are required to be in possession of a Grade 10 with Mathematics and English for the Kitchen
Hand Course.
Four Month Full Time Occupational Certificate Kitchen Hand
Due to the development of a new South African qualification for chefs, ChefMLK School of Cooking is
entering this new era with the presentation of a course aligned to this qualification which has been written
for professionals by professionals in the Hospitality and Catering Industry. The Occupational Certificate:
Kitchen Hand has been developed under supervision of the Quality Council for Trades and Occupations
(QCTO). Kitchen Hand is a part qualification leading to the Cook and Chef Occupational Certificates.
(Note: An Occupational Trade Test will have to be passed before formally qualifying as a Kitchen Hand).
This course also includes the City & Guilds Skills Proficiency Certificate (Food Preparation).
The qualification requires both academic and practical work experience modules to be completed in the
months of study. This means that a Trainee Kitchen Hand will spend a considerable time actively gaining
practical work experience in reputable establishments when not attending lectures at ChefMLK School of
Cooking. The placement period is arranged and monitored by ChefMLK School of Cooking lecturers with a
network of professional partners.
Upon successful completion of this course, the Trainee can apply for entry to the ChefMLK School of
Cooking Occupation Certificate Cook course in 2022.
